cause and effect

 


In English, the meaning of the sentence cause and effect is cause and effect. Namely, types of compound sentences that have causes and can lead to effects. Cause means something that happens, while the effect is a consequence or result of the incident.

Typically, these sentences are characterized by a marker word or phrase called a connector. Because it is often used in conjunction with a degree of comparison sentence, you can learn both while learning! What are the connectors in cause and effect? Let's understand the following explanation. There are formulas and example sentences too, you know!

Cause and effect is divided into two, namely those that are followed by nouns, verbs or clauses. To master it, you need to first compare the cause and effect sentences.

Cause and effect + Noun

Rumus 1:  Connector + Cause, + Effect

Konektor: due to, owing to, because of, as a result of, as a consequence of

Example:

Another example:

- Owing to her kindness, Mia gave her a gift. (Because of his kindness, Mia gave him a gift.)

- Because of this cooking book, I am able to cook my own meal. (Because of this cookbook, I can cook    my own food.)

Formula 2: Effect + Connector + Cause

- I got sick due to the cold weather  (effect) + (connector) + (cause)

Another example:

- The car was broken as a result of her recklessness. (His car was damaged by his carelessness.)

- Alvin got a warning as a consequence of his laziness. (Alvin got a warning for his laziness.)

- She was late because of her bad sleeping habit. (She was late because of her bad sleep schedule.)

  True Friends Once upon a time, there were two close friends who were walking through the forest together. They knew that anything dangerous can happen any time in the forest. So they promised each other that they would always be together in any case of danger. Suddenly, they saw a large bear getting closer toward them. One of them climbed a nearby tree at once. But unfortunately the other one did not know how to climb up the tree. So being led by his common sense, he lay down on the ground breathless and pretended to be a dead man. The bear came near the one who was lying on the ground. It smelt in his ears, and slowly left the place because the bears do not want to touch the dead creatures. After that, the friend on the tree came down and asked his friend that was on the ground, “Friend, what did the bear whisper into your ears?” The other friend replied, “Just now the bear advised me not to believe a false friend”.
